Abstract

Wind information can provide an optimal estimate of the runway orientation by minimizing the crosswind component of the wind at airports, which severely affect aircraft take-off and landing performance. Additionally, a systematic geometric design requires information on wind speed, direction, duration and specific information about latitude and longitude, temperature variation, and altitude of the airport site. In the present research, meteorological synoptic data has been precisely measured and collected over Genaveh unconstructed airport for a period of five years.

Highlights

  • 10 years after the first successful flight by Wright Brothers in 1903, Iran experienced the first flight and landing of a plane (Blurry 11) in Tehran by Russian-Polish Kozminskiy on January 4th, 1914 [1]

  • Based on meteorological synoptic data, the wind speed and direction, pressure, temperature, time and date of occurrence were collected with a 10 minutes time resolution during five years

  • Orientation analysis According to the classified wind data, the wind roses diagram of the Genaveh airport in the period of 2014-2018 have been illustrated in Figure 3, Figure 4 and Figure 5 for the total period and different seasons

Summary

Introduction

10 years after the first successful flight by Wright Brothers in 1903, Iran experienced the first flight and landing of a plane (Blurry 11) in Tehran by Russian-Polish Kozminskiy on January 4th, 1914 [1]. The main operation in determining the orientation of a runway is the preparation of the wind rose diagram, which gives an explicit view on how wind speed and direction are distributed at a particular location over a specific period of time It is a very useful representation because a large quantity of data can be summarized in a single plot. Et al presented a geographic information system (GIS)-based wind rose method called Airport Runway Optimization (ARO) to determine the orientation of a runway for the effective layout of airport facilities [12] This method uses a set of customized GIS operators and the database management tools to solve both the partial coverage problem and runway orientation optimization based on given wind data and allowable crosswinds. A time processing procedure allows analyzing the data to produce the wind roses diagram
